HARPSWELL, Maine — A lobsterman from Harpswell had a rare encounter this week when he came across a group of great white sharks while hauling traps near Cundy’s Harbor. Cory Hawkes, who has fished the local waters his whole life, said he was moving from offshore to inshore just north of Ragged Island when he noticed something unusual in the water. "Anytime I see a fin or something like that—sunfish, whales, blue sharks, tuna, porpoises—I always stop to admire them," Hawkes said.
